| "The wind is killer today." -myself to anyone for small talk today.
I don't know why I say things like this. And then say it again to someone else--again. Nothing annoys me more about myself than my non-purposely invented catch phrases that I don't even like, yet I continue to say them throughout the course of the day. Perhaps this weirdness is due to the fact that I almost pulled my first all nighter of the working world. Kinko's...4 a.m. You know the drill, and that drill sucks. I'm home early and getting ready to take a nap. It's going to be killer. | | |

I just got my back popped, and I must say, it felt pretty dang good. Who am I?

In solitaire, finally moving a card off of the stack only to reveal the same color & number that you just got rid of
Waiting in silence for someone to read a card I have written them
Taking pills

Brushing my teeth. There, I said it.

| Well, I must say 2 snow days in a row were completely unexpected and completely glorious. Luckily, I had brought home work on Wednesday night to keep me moderately busy in case what happened did. But still, working at home lended itself to comfortable breaks in front of the fire, a homecooked brunch, a lunch time bubble bath, The Office Season 2, and a showing of "It's a Wonderful Life" (putting an end to work a little early). Friday wasn't as magical, but still beautiful outside, and also a Friday, which was a perfect lead in to the weekend. I'm actually up at the office right now and will be tomorrow as well, which would have been inevitable with or without the snow storm. Therefore, I didn't feel bad about leisurely enjoying my last two days. It was a great holiday booster! On another note, I watched 28 Days earlier this week. I was pleasantly surprised to see the supporting roll of a recovering alcoholic played by Mike O'Malley. A definite 180 degrees from his type cast as an amazing game show host. | | |
| So John's last comment was the final straw. I'm back. Lately, I have been limited to only seeing my daily updates in my email. Blogging has been verbally prohibited at work (not that I did it often anyways), but now it has kept me completely from even going to the site on my lunch hour.
I only have a 3 day work week this week and I am pumped. I'm taking 3 days off to go to Indiana with David and meet the fam. It is only fair considering I live with mine which means they are constantly in the picture. But I really am excited. I love road trips and stopping at places I've never been before. Especially St. Louis! I've written a paper on Erro Saarinen's arch, but have yet to see it. I've never even been to the Midwest period. Of course, all I know about Indiana is that there is a lot of corn, Theta was founded and is headquartered there, everyone is probably into race cars, and it is the home state of John Mellencamp (I'm borderline stereotyping). Friday we're going to West Layfayette for Homecoming at Purdue. I'm excited to be in Boilermaker country and walk around campus. I have taken on a liking to it, simply because it is different. Don't get me wrong, I love OU...but so does 80% of the state. It seems cool to pick a school that you like that not everyone has gone to. Very similar to my brief love of Villanova when I had them winning in my NCAA bracket last March. Then they lost. We broke up shortly after.
That is pretty much it. Just enjoying the cooler weather. I love fall. Now I'm getting ready to do some things that will allow me to make some cross-offs on my To Do list for the week. It's gonna feel good. Maybe I will reward myself with a little Season One Laguna Beach. Yes...that sounds good. Alright, I'm so donzo. | | |
| Up at the office. Again. Got a case of studio shoulder. The eyes are hurting. I am ready for my job to be over at 5:00 again. Hopefully, after next week, it will. Even a change of project would be refreshing. I'm tired of programming. Show me the floorplans and some color.
The only thing worse I can think of is our poor intern. She starts senior studio on Monday, and while she should be living it up this last weekend, she will be spending her Saturday and Sunday up here with us working on a deadline. She should have never confessed her talent at Photoshop and InDesign.
Time to get back to work. Sorry. I got nothing. | | |
